Oh I got you. Yeah on my Roubaix they aren't bladed. That's the one where I had two spokes loosen. As they got more and more loose, the plinging going up hills got worse and worse, and also like when I'd lift the bike over a curb and/or turn it by lifting (maneuvering it in the house, etc) I could just hear rattling on the rear wheel when it would hit the ground.
My bladed spokes don't make any noise at all. They used to make noise when the bike was brand new though, and when I had the super knobby tires on it, whenever i'd roll over a bigger rock or root, etc.
I'm not a wheel expert, just sharing my story and my experiences to maybe help you out a little bit, I don't know.
